Did you know that you can change your environment by changing yourself?  In this class participants will learn to chant Nam Myoho Renge Kyo.  With practice, you can gain the wisdom and life force to meet any challenge or difficulty, creating a life of harmony, joy and confidence.  During this class you will learn a brief history of the Lotus Sutra from Shakyamuni, to Nichiren Daishonin.  You will also learn about the Ten Worlds, karma, the workings of cause and effect in one’s life and the Buddhist view of death.  We will begin and end the class with chanting together for those who chose to do so.   Participants may find  The Buddha in Your MIrror (amazon.com) a useful guide, but it is not required.
